दृष्टिसाङ्गबलेष्टकष्टाद्यानयनाधिकारः
एषां सर्वेषाञ्चक्राणां यथासम्प्रदायंव्यवस्थाद्रष्टव्येति ॥ मैत्रीचक्रप्रयोजनंवक्ष्यमाणपञ्चवर्गीबले ज्ञेयम् ॥ तदग्रे सर्वम्प्रकटीभविष्यति ॥
The arrangement of all these schemes is to be seen as the tradition directs. The use of the maitri chakra (friendship wheel) is to be known in the panchavargi (five-part strength), which will be told later. All of that will become clear later.
Simple meaning: Use whichever friendship scheme the tradition directs; their use comes in the five-part strength, told next.
अथपञ्चवर्गीबलन्तत्प्रयोजनं चाह यादवसूरिः ॥
Why panchavargi is needed: strength in twentieth parts cannot be known without it, so its working out is given.
ताजिकालंकारेपि ॥
Why panchavargi comes first: the year lord cannot be settled without knowing the planets' strength, so the five-part way is given.
पञ्चवर्गानाह समरसिंहः ॥
Five places of strength: own house, high point, hadda, trairashika and musallaha. A planet with none of them is not strong.
